论坛首发-开源可扩充处理器架构书籍OpenSPARC Internals

tim_yeh

This book is intended as a "getting started" companion to both OpenSPARC T1 and OpenSPARC T2. Now that Sun has open-sourced OpenSPARC T1 and T2, what can they be used for? One thing is certain: the real-world uses to which OpenSPARC will be put will be infinitely more diverse and interesting than anything that could be suggested in this book! OpenSPARC Internals was largely written by the team of OpenSPARC designers, developers, and programmers to acquaint readers with OpenSPARC and to guide users as they develop their own OpenSPARC designs. Here are some highlights of the book:
How to customize and use OpenSPARC
How to start using OpenSPARC code
How to make basic changes including
configuring number of cores or threads
paring to a smaller size
fitting on an FPGA
adding extensions
How to set up
simulation environment
emulation environment
How to verify an OpenSPARC design

What are they saying about OpenSPARC Internals?

"The coverage is extremely broad and deep, from the basics of the OpenSPARC architecture, the rationale for throughput optimized microprocessor design, and the microarchitecture of the T1 and T2 implementations to a roadmap for using the T1 and T2 design database and design verification suites."
Kunle Olukotun

Founder, Afara Websystems
Director, Pervasive Parallelism Lab


"OpenSPARC Internals provides an in-depth explanation of UltraSPARC T1/T2 internal architecture. It also serves as a detailed reference for guiding the implementation of a chip multithreaded microprocessor or the development of a SoC based application system. This book plays a significant role in helping promote not only the application of UltraSPARC T1/T2 but also the research and development of a chip multithreaded microprocessor as well as its applications."
Dongsheng Wang, Ph.D.
Tsinghua University, Beijing, China
Professor, Dept. of Computer Science
Director of Microprocessor and SoC Center


"Like the open-source OpenSPARC T1 and T2 projects, OpenSPARC Internals delivers a comprehensive package. The book tells a complete story behind Sun's current flagship chip-multithreaded (CMT) processors-from the design theories and internals to the development tools and methodologies. The book is especially indispensable to anyone interested in uncovering ways to take advantage of the open-source OpenSPARC projects."
James C. Hoe

Associate Professor, Electrical & Computer Engineering


"This book provides a wealth of practical tips for getting started using OpenSPARC, and OpenSPARC provides a great design to take full advantage of modern FPGAs."
Ivo Bolsens Chief Technology Officer, Xilinx Corporation
